Software-update: ExifTool 12.70

Phil Harvey heeft versie 12.70 van ExifTool uitgebracht. ExifTool is een gratis en crossplatformprogramma waarmee de metadata van een groot aantal bestanden kan worden beheerd en bewerkt. Het werkt vanaf de commandline, maar er zijn oplossingen van derden beschikbaar waardoor het ook met een grafische gebruikersinterface kan worden gebruikt. Met enige regelmaat verschijnen er nieuwe versies, maar de meeste uitgaven worden onder de bètavlag beschikbaar gesteld. Versie 12.70 is echter een stabiele uitgave en markeert tevens het 20-jarig jubileum van het programma. De changelog voor deze uitgave ziet er als volgt uit:
